“Without Pity” print by Glenn Barr

1xRun.com, a new site that does time limited print editions, currently have a new print by Glenn Barr. “Without Pity” is 13 3/8″ x 16 3/8″ on archival cotton paper, signed and numbered in an edition no larger than 35. The way the site works is if only 10 prints are sold in the time the print is available, thats the edition size. I’ve always been a huge fan of Glenn’s work, and have been waiting for one of his Robot Monster inspired works to make it into print form. There is only 5 days left, or 15 prints to go.

“Weirdo Noir” book by Matt Dukes Jordan

The author of the book “Weirdo Deluxe”, is back with a new book talking the gothic and dark art scene. The book is 9″ x 9″, 192 pages and features work from more than 20 artists such as Attaboy, Ana Bagayan, Glenn Barr, Jonathan Bergeron, Ray Ceasar, Jason d’Aquino, Bob Dob, Alex Gross, Sarah Joncas, Annette Hassell, Fred Harper, Dan Kennedy, Laurie Lipton, Travis Louie, Tara McPherson, Skot Olsen, Nathan Ota, Annie Owens, Anthony Pontius, Isabel Samaras, Shag, Dani Tull, Brian Viveros, and Edward Walton Wilcox.
I enjoyed Weirdo Deluxe quite a bit, and this book seems like a good followup. I’m not sure if I agree about the “noir”, or as stated in the description “artists who have embraced the dark side, employing gothic themes in their art.” There are a few artists in that list that have dark works for sure, but maybe I just have a different definition of “dark and gothic”.

The Play Enterprise and Warhol Museum asked over 20 artist to reinterpret the classic bunny imagery. The show as first shown at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburg, but has been given a second go round at the Rotofugi Gallery.

Many of the paintings look pretty spectacular, and fit the Playboy theme very well. I especially like Glenn Barr’s, Jeremy Fish, Tara McPherson, Keith Weesner, Ken Keirns, and Isabel Samaras all of which are shown below. After you take a look at these, keep your eye on the galleries site for the full show to surface.

Jason D’Aquino & Lead Poisoning @ Last Rites Gallery

This past Saturday, July 10th, two amazing shows opened at the Last Rites Gallery in New York. First a solo show of new works by Jason D’Aquino, and then a drawing group show called “Lead Poisoning”. Just a few of the artists that participated in the group show are: Esao Andrews, Carrie Anne Baade, Glenn Barr, Dave MacDowell, Scott G Brooks, Daniel Martin Diaz, Ron English, Chris Mars, Chet Zar, David Stoupakis, Eric White, Tara McPherson, and many more.

Jason D’Aquino’s show was a perfect blend of his smaller matchbook pieces, and some larger works done on various types of antiqued paper. There is also two prints available: “Plague” which is 8″ x 18″ limited to 50, and “Antique Flash Poster” at 18″ x 24″ for $40. Jason has such an amazing style. The way he draws, his characters, and the found paper that he uses really helps to create a unique and nostalgic feel. I especially like the piece “Don Post (Masks)” (shown), it reminds me of being a kid and wanting to collect every mask Don Post ever created.

Glenn Barr launches new website

Glenn Barr will have a solo show entitled “Small Epic” at Roq La Rue this Friday, July 9th. Along with this new series of works, Glenn has also redesigned his homepage. His previous site was flash based, and while it looked snazzy it was not as clean and easy to use as this new design. The graphics of the page look as though they were plucked right out of Glenn’s sketchbook, and the store now gives you the ability to zoom in on the prints and see all the details. Head on over and check out Glenn’s new website, and keep your eye open for the gallery post his new works.

“Evening” print by Glenn Barr from Pressure Printing

It’s always exciting when Pressure Printing releases a new print. The quality and features of their prints is top notch. Looks like they just released a new print from Glenn Barr. “Evening” is a giclee print on Hahnemühle German Etching paper, which was then inlaid into debossed 300gsm Arches watercolor paper. The paper is embossed with printer’s chop, and also comes with a custom-designed, perforated, signed and numbered certificate of authenticity. The print is 30” x 18.5” with an image size of 23” × 11”, signed and numbered in an edition of 50. I’m sure I have raved before of how much of a fan I am of Glenn’s art, and a print like this made by Pressure Printing is just too good to be true.

“The Multi-Plane” group show @ Corey Helford Gallery

This past Saturday, December 12th at the Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City the “Multi-Plane” group show opened up. For the past few weeks I have been seeing some previews of some of the pieces in the show, one of the great reasons to check out artists blogs now and again. The idea of the show is that “Each of these paintings is an original work created on two layers of glass and a masonite panel background, emulating the multi-plane process developed by animators in the 1930’s to create depth in animated features. Each surface is separated by 3/8 of an inch and the entire painting is housed in a custom-made frame.”
